Ip is a style of wing chun. That comes from a person Ip Man. Also his style is called Ip chun. Ip is name and only is one style of wing chun.
Wing chun is still used and practiced. However like most Chinese martial arts the schools are mainly in big cities.
I think you are referring to the Wing Chun Dummy, which is used for practicing Mook Jong from the Kung Fu style of Wing Chun.
It is authentic but I don't think it's very effective in a street fight.
Not sure if its the most effective, but its one of the most effective. There are some other highly effective forms of martial arts, like Krav Maga and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Wing Chun works at all ranges, excelling at close range, so you dont have to worry about what happens when your apponent gets close enough to punch, grab, etc. Wing chun has the most effective blocking techinques, and try ( usually secedes ) at moving in to get at 'trapping' range (close range), always attacking when the opponent is not. So if one uses the techniques properly and beneficently, then it truly will be the most effective marital art.
